      (description
-      "The Ncurses (new curses) library is a free software emulation of curses
-in System V Release 4.0, and more.  It uses Terminfo format, supports pads
-and color and multiple highlights and forms characters and function-key
-mapping, and has all the other SYSV-curses enhancements over BSD Curses.
-
-The ncurses code was developed under GNU/Linux.  It has been in use for some
-time with OpenBSD as the system curses library, and on FreeBSD and NetBSD as
-an external package.  It should port easily to any ANSI/POSIX-conforming
-UNIX.  It has even been ported to OS/2 Warp!")

+well as multiple highlights and forms characters.  It is typically used to
